Is It Flashpoint?!

The shock and horror in Ba Di's heart surged uncontrollably as he stared at the Flash with a constantly changing expression.

Basically, in every known world in DC Comics, in the more detailed worlds, without exception, the Flash's mother is killed by Reverse Flash.

The Flash's ability to become the Flash was influenced by those around him and the loss of his mother.

There are only a very few parallel universes where the Flash's mother didn't die, and those universes are not worth mentioning.

In this world, the Flash's mother did not die, Flash is still the Flash, with a happy and fulfilling family life. He is truly a winner in life.

If The Flash's mother is not dead, then it basically proves that the world he lives in is not the main DC universe.

Or perhaps, his arrival prematurely killed Reverse Flash's birth, allowing Flash's mother to survive?

In neither of these situations, Ba Di was afraid or worried.

He was worried about another possibility: that the Flash, because he missed his mother so much, had recklessly traveled through time and created this world where his mother had not died! Ba Di's face darkened as he suppressed the surging waves of shock in his heart, and he couldn't help but recall and ponder all the things he had experienced.

Memories, from the depths of the brain, every trace, every thought of the past, every woman kissed and touched, every person encountered, every choice driven by actions, every change made—from awakening on Krypton, rebirth, growth, learning, plotting, seduction, becoming a powerful general, initiating a revolution, failure, being ambushed by Jor-El with the Codex of Life, fighting his way out, and boarding a spaceship to Earth.

Then he was captured...

The images in my mind pause here.

Could it be... that I've replaced Superman? And been captured and studied by humans?

Ba Di's eyes flashed with a cold, terrifying light. His body involuntarily emitted a magnetic field belonging to a planet-level powerhouse. Gravity twisted around him, his clothes trembled, and memory particles rippled on his body. The nearby air was curved, and the cold mist on the ground surged out from his feet and spread far away.

The air was so oppressive that it seemed to press down on the space like a mountain.

In this space where only the Flash existed, he was in dire straits. His already extremely weak body, coupled with the fear of being threatened by Ba Di and the intense grief over his parents, was instantly overwhelmed by the magnetic pressure released by Ba Di's violent emotional fluctuations. It felt as if his chest had been hit by a car.

With a 'poof' sound.

The Flash coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the blood mist in the air, due to the pressure from Ba Di, slapped against the Flash's face again. His pale face was instantly covered with bright red spots, and with a miserable whimper, he lowered his head and fainted.

This coughing up of blood startled Ba Di, who was deep in thought.

Ba Di glanced at the Flash with a grim expression, controlled his emotions, suppressed his magnetic field pressure, and instructed Ferdinand Swann to inject nutrients into the Flash again to keep him conscious.

However, the Flash, who was extremely weak, was temporarily unable to wake up.

After instructing Ferdinand Swann to keep an eye on The Flash, Ba Di fell into deep thought once more.

His right hand supported his left, his thumb rubbing his palm incessantly, the frequency gradually increasing and accelerating, his brain working frantically, comparable to a supercomputer, his eyes revealing a thoughtful and contemplative expression.

"Is it... true...?"

As for whether he replaced Superman and was captured and studied by humans, even with brain processing power comparable to a supercomputer and unparalleled wisdom, he couldn't calculate a result.

He muttered to himself, delving deeper into his memories once more.

From the Underground Research Institute in Nevada, he was the first person to see Earth's native surface, a character from the DC Universe, Death Knell.

Ba Di pondered deeply: if he hadn't arrived, would Death Knell still have given up being a soldier? Become the Mercenary King? Then meet Lex Luthor, and die together in the English Channel?

The result, of course, cannot be calculated, but in Ba Di's mind, it is a very high possibility.

After leaving the base in Nevada, he swam across most of the United States, but accidentally swam too far and ended up in Gotham on the other side.

He witnessed the deaths of Batman's parents.

Was it that Batman, the butterfly, influenced the Destiny of the Wayne family simply by existing in Gotham, causing Batman, who should have died, to survive, while his father and mother died, and his mother never had the chance to become the Joker?

Ba Di frowned deeply, completely baffled.

I've thought about these things repeatedly, but I still haven't come up with any clues.

However, the recent emergence of Ya Te Lan Di Si and Paradise Island makes it absolutely certain that there is an 80% chance that Ba Di was right.

To be honest, in DC Comics, there is no specific time when Paradise Island and Ya Te Lan Di Si were created and revealed to the world.

However, in this world, at this time, the timing of its birth seems to be just right.

It just so happens that it appears before the world during a time of world peace.

Therefore, the timing of Ya Te Lan Di Si and Diana's meeting seems to be very good.

When faced with all the countries on Earth, cooperation and marriage between two ancient nations would even become a matter of course.

Then the plot unfolds, and amidst various changes, humans intervene to prevent a deep-seated marriage between two ancient kingdoms. Humans on Earth are not foolish enough to let them actually cooperate.

Just the fact that these two ancient nations could send people directly to the United Nations, practically blatantly disregarding all other countries and directly entering a venue like the United Nations conference, would certainly arouse the fear of all people on Earth.

No country can tolerate such undetected entry into the most heavily guarded United Nations meetings. This is an act of contempt for all humanity. For a country, this capability is terrifying and leaves humanity with no sense of security whatsoever.

So, the bombing of Paradise Island prevented their marriage, and Ohm's ambitions, along with the killing of Diana's mother, caused both sides to abandon any thought of cooperation, leading to misunderstandings and a war.

Diana's personality changed drastically, and she beheaded Aquaman, Mera's wife.

Aquaman was enraged, and Ya Te Lan Di Si then waged a great war against the Amazon Warriors, resulting in the Destruction nearby countries such as Britain, Ireland, and France, which were flooded and turned into ruins, causing the deaths of hundreds of millions of people.

The Flashpoint storyline... begins here.

The timing and circumstances of all of this seemed to be a perfect match.

Therefore, the activation of Flashpoint was not something that happened casually or suddenly appeared out of Flash.

The Flash was merely a catalyst, giving the world another chance to make choices—countless choices—which led to the Flashpoint.

If it weren't for Ba Di's appearance, the story of this world would have continued in this way.

Ba Di gave the Flash a long look, his head bowed.

He then fell silent, closed his eyes, and stood upright, waiting for the Flash to awaken.

When the Flash let out a soft "Hmm!" and opened his painful, weak eyes...

Ba Di also opened his eyes.

He needed to determine... exactly where this world was progressing with The Flash! He opened his mouth and asked.
